The Attack on CoIorow's Camp IA Breach

That the Indians will Return
to the Reservation,

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-Lieut. Burnett,
of the Sth cavalry sent with II troopers at
the request of Col. Byrnes, the Indian
agent at Fort Duchesne, the border of the
Ute reservation to prevent the invasion of
the reservation by the Colorado militia
and cowboys, telegraphed Byrnes Aug. 26
AS follows: The Colorado militia under
Mai Leslie and some cowboys surprised

the Indians left at once to see you.
Col. Randlett, commander Of the post at
Fort Duchesne in forwarding this de-
spatch to the war department adds
Agent Byrnes has shown great discre-
ton constantly. He has the confidence of
the Indians perfectly and if they are not
attacked on the reservation will hold them
securely. They are well armed and SUI
perbly mounted. None of those who
lived on the reservation went to Colorow' S
assistance until after the attack. 1t is re-
ported by Burnett that now he is on the
reservation. If further pursuit is made
by the Colorado troops the Indians will
stay with Colorow and make a terrible
tale of bloodshed. The tribe is armed,
preparing for the defensive
Col. Randlett says Gen. Crook will be at
Rawlins, Wyoming, about 80 miles north
of where the fight occurred tomorrow

LONDON, Aug. 29.-The Nineteenth
Century contains an article by Gladstone
entitled Electoral facts of 1885," He says
the general election of 1856 indicated not
the conviction but the perplexity of the
country. The results of the recent cleo
tions are equivalent to an improved lib

conservatives the benefit of all doubts Il

minority of 1893 This basis is too narrow
to allow the expression of undue conf

O'Brien's trial opens September Sth. Any

RETRIEVED.
Attorney Duffy Obtains Another Thirty
Days Respite For Harding,

DWyC ASNCPAVO Va 1U0A uAu6N
Attorney ]. H. Duffy was on last even
ings Montana Union train into Butte, hav-
ing come yesterday from Deer Lodge, and
the night before from Helena. He was ap.
preached by a MINER representative as
soon as he landed, and Intercepted as to
the present standing of the case OF Thomas
H. Harding, who was sentenced to be
hung at Dillon on next Friday.
II have just come" said Attorney Duffy,
from Helena, where I have been working
hard for the last fow days in Harding's in
terest. I succeeded On Friday in getting a
time for presenting his case to the Supreme
Court OF the United States. The grounds
on which the petition is based are that one
OF the jurors who tried the case was an
alien, and that the witness was denied by
the court the right to have compulsory
process for obtaining witnesses in his
favor"
Mr.. Duffy will leave within a week for
Washington to present the retition, which
is for the issuance of writs of babeas corpus
and certiorari. He says that if this fails
he has still a couple OF shots in the locker,
and will fight the case to the last ditch.
What interests him particularlyin this case
is hat Harding has an aged mother, ~
years old, in New York, and her appeals to
him to prevent the execution OF her son
very pathetic.
In regard to the arrest OF Kennedy, Mr..
Duffy said that he was not concerned in
that matter. Some people had alleged
that he had caused Ksnnedy's arrest, be-
the evidence against him tended to
exculpate Harding. Mr.. Duffy states
openly that he believes Kennedy to be IN
man. Mr.. Campbellleft Saturday
night for Dillon to convey information to
Harding Of his reprieve.

provide the town with some sort OF fire
protection. The step il . good one and
very necessary. as the entire lower part Of
town is still at the mercy Of the Fire Fiend,
as the scripture hath it.
Several of our young society gentlemen
went out the other day and tried the hill
south of town with hand sleds. They were
prospecting for a toboggan slide, and each
one sunk a sunk a shalt about four feet
deep in snow. but no Indications were
found. They returned disgusted.
Mining activity in the vicinity Of Ana
conda has almost ceased. The district is
promising, but not yet thoroughly pros
pected. Claim owners are mostly poor
prospectors in this neigbborhood, and the
cold weather and snow have frozen them
out almost entirely. Only the Blue Eyed
Nellie is shipping any ore. This mine
shipped last month twenty-five cars OF ore
to the Omaha & Grant Shelter.
The Ancient Order of United Workman
gave q we'll attended ball on the Friday
when the fire occurred. Ofton Brothers, OF
Butte, furnished the music, which was
voted by all present to have been the finest
ever heard in Anaconda.
General rejoicing was caused Sunday
night by the intelligence that the smelter
would resume operations. People in Ana
conda were MT in q condition to get along
without money for several months. The
start up will make money and credit easier.

Robbed.

II any one had told Dan Gamer yester-
day morning that he could be robbed in
broad daylight he would have laughed at
them. Had the same thing been mentioned
to him in the afternoon he would have
treated, and said not a word. The affair
thusly: Dan was deliver ing beer
to his customers and landed in front OF an
establishment in front OF Dublin Gulch.
He rolled q keg of Centennial on the side
walk and went into the premises to trans
act some business, probably remaining
there five minutes. When he came out he
was surprised to find that the key had
disappeared. OF course he is a little curl
GUS to know how and where it went. The
value of the missing article does not bother
the genial Dan, but he would like to have
brief interview with the parties who
aided in It's disappearance.
